Human Sadness
[Intro]
Put money in my hand
And I will do the things you want me to

[Verse 1]
Vanity overriding wisdom
Usually common sense
Should I delete it, you said you’d read it
You promised you would never ruin it with sequels
I wait for you on and on

[Chorus]
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a-

[Verse 2]
The moon’s a skull, I think it’s grinning
The room is full of people now I think it’s spinning
Wanted you, didn’t ask for nothing
Wait for you on and on
And I don’t need your tie, I don’t need to, tired of saying it
We don’t need more talk, don’t empty out your canteen on the desert floor
Ahhh, it’s all my fault
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Never wanna spell it out
I just want to say that it is all my fault
I could never spit it out
I don’t wanna fix your tie
Never want to say we’re sad
Thankful that we got some chance
I know you won’t get back your time
I wish that you could take it back

[Chorus]
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a field
I will be meeting you there

[Verse 4]
He wanted it more than me, I suppose
I was in a rush to wait in a line
Now I hear echoes of my old self
This is not the way to be
All at once
I lost my way
[Verse 5]
Is it not true, the things that we did?
Come here at once and look what they did
Come here, shut down and tune in tonight
Learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it
Come here, sit down and watch some TV
Mine, all mine
Wait your turn
Cross my cross
Slice his hand
Not your son
Not your friend
Not your enemy
I rely on the little things to get me by
Conscience says, “I’m okay”
You don’t hear what they say
“He’s not my son, search his home”
Off to war
It’s time to go hide inside

[Verse 6]
Soft skin
Weak chin
Just walk me through it, tell me what to do, I’ll do it
Hurry, hurry, that’s my baby
Ohh, do what you can
All the time he waits for me
And now we talk from time to time
Hits you on the head when nobody’s there
Then he says “Come here, could you fix my tie?”
It’s never gonna be
To be is not the way to be
Show me where to go don’t get angry so quickly
Fuck depression
[Chorus]
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a field
I will be meeting you there
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong, there is a field
I will be meeting you there

[Outro]
Understanding is more important than love is
If not money will always trump justice
All is lost
I’ll find my way
So I say
To be is not to be
To be is not the way to be
